200 years of history, all with “slow maturation.” Tenuta Regaleali, the mother estate comprises of 550 hectares in the heart of Sicily and property of the Tasca d’Almerita family since 1830, started with a precise aim to enhance native grape varieties and territories of the highest potential for wine-growing. Over the years another four estates were added:
Capofaro on Salina, Tascante on Etna, the historic Tenuta Whitaker on the ancient island of Mozia, and Sallier de La Tour in Monreale.
This is a blend of 41% Inzolia, 33% Catarratto Bianco, 21% Grecanico and 5% Chardonnay. These grapes are grown on sandy clay soils on hills 100 kilometres southeast of Palermo, at an altitude of 450-700 metres. Local grapes Inzolia and Grecanico are harvested first, followed by the Catarratto.
Delicately fruity nose with apple, peach and pink grapefruit notes. The palate is quite intense and crisp, with plenty of fresh fruit flavours. To easy to drink this!
